NEVER AGAIN! Rather than driving to my normal Chinese restaurant, read the Golden City reviews on Google and decided to try it. Ordered Chow Mein and Shrimp Fried Rice carryout. When entering the restaurant, was hit with a pungent order (similar to bad seafood). Approached the counter. Waited almost 5 minutes for someone to show. Got my food and left. As I walked into the house, noticed the bag was soggy. Removed the contents, and found all of the Chow Mein gravy in the bottom of bag (normal restaurants place the carton inside a plastic bag to avoid this). Placed Chow Mein on my plate. Found large shrimp (GOOD) that still had the shell on the tail (BAD). Tasted the Chow Mein and was left with an after taste similar bad fish adn celery that has gone bad. At 10:30PM, too late to return for a $15.64 refund. Attempted to throw away but my "garbage disposal hubby" decided to eat it. Needless to say, he now has DIARRHEA!! LESSONS LEARNED! Folks, always choose Chinese Restaurants carefully!!

Ordered take-out tonight and was very disappointed. They asked if my order was correct when I got there, which it wasnt, and they were very nice about fixing it. I also added a wonton soup when I got there and there was no troubles with that. The staff is friendly, but the food isnt good. When I got home, the soup was very soggy (turned to mush when I tried cutting into the wonton), my order was still wrong (never changed it, even after they asked me), the rice tastes like MSG, and the egg rolls are terrible. I ate a little to give it more chances, but in the end I threw it away. My husband liked his chicken (but not the rice and egg roll). Will not be eating there again.

I really liked it there. Me and my fiance went out there to test it out (Im very picky). We sat down and the ladies were very nice and even complimented me on my dress. We got the food in a timely manner. The soup (I think it was egg drop) was wonderful considering I dont like soup. The general tao chicken and egg roll was the best Ive ever had. My fiance hates rice and usually gives it to me, but this time he liked it. We love this place and the price isnt bad either for all the food you get. :) The only problem is that it is very small and dim on the inside, but if you look past that, it is worth the going to after oakland mall or plaza shopping!

If I could give it a zero, I would. First, they go my order wrong. The friend rice which came w/ my general tso was inedible. I dont know what it tasted like - but, I do know it tasted like something which didnt belong in my body. The spring was OK. The general tsos was awful. Really soggy and somewhat bland. My lo mein...well, I was given chow mein instead. It was the best part of the meal, but, I still wouldnt chose to have it again. Im new to the area and had a craving for chinese - this place was close and yelp seemed to like it. Never again. One down, who knows how many more to go.

I read these other reviews and just dont get it. Ive been to literally hundreds of different Chinese places and this is by far my favorite of them all. The atmosphere inside is great, dim lighting and all. The service, very quick and friendly. The food..... top of the line and huge portions. The egg drop soul is the best youll ever have. Beef friend rice, also the best Ive had. General Tsao Chicken and Sesame Chicken are to die for. Time and time again, this is my go to place. Do yourself a favor and either dine there or order carryout at least once. You wont be disappointed!

Ok so I have eaten here about 10 times so far. Let me start with some of the popular dishes General Tsao-Good classic general, but not spicy unless you ask for it. Also too much breading but otherwise cooked well. Sesame Chicken-Same as General Tsao there just is too much breading but it is cooked well and tastes good. I have never dined in and the carryout people are always very nice. If you like Americanized Chinese food this is your spot. If you want authentic Chinese food look elsewhere.

I typically dont give bad reviews because I work in the restaurant business too. But after tonight I will never come here again. I called a half hour before close just 10 minutes ago. Instead of answering my call you people let the phone ring. After calling a third time, you disconnected your phone. I get it that you people were getting ready to close, but thats so rude of you to refuse service to me when youre still open for 30 more minutes. You just lost a customer.

We recently moved to Madison Heights and decided to try this place on a whim... soo glad we did! I have an onion allergy and gluten sensitivity and they are always awesome about making sure that my food is safe. The vegetables are always perfectly cooked, there is an abundance of food that is served hot and quickly, and the service is top notch. I highly recommend!

I only get take out from this fine establishment, but i feel as though I am in a chenese food utopia every time i go there. I would go to this place for my last meal. I would love to bathe in the delicious gravey. and sleep on a bed of their fried rice. Im simply in love. Golden City will you marry me????????(.)(.)8=====)

Golden City is filthy and a peculiar odor wafts over one as they enter. The soup and tea were both tepid upon arrival to the table and food was average at best. The only redeeming quality is their friendly staff. Madison Heights has many better options for asian cuisine.

The food is great, exactly what youre looking for in a Chinese dinner. Nothing soggy, everything hot and tastes like it should, and each dish tastes different unlike many restaurants that all taste the same and only the sauce changes color. Definitely worth the money.

Great chinese restaurant. A nice quiet place to sit down and have a delicious meal. Service is outstanding and the food is great. I highly recommend the General Tao. Prices are very reasonable and they have a lunch menu as well that runs until 4 pm.

I have been going here for years. The service is excellent and the atmosphere is welcoming. I always get light sauce sesame chicken and fried rice. And it taste exactly the same or even better each time. Highly recommend a visit here.
